ASMR - The Cheat with the Ace of Diamonds by de La Tour 

Hello, I have a suggestion for an artist you could look into; Donald McGill, definitely one of Britain's most obscure, controversial and collectible artists!!!.

Interesting, when you mentioned animals, I couldn't help but notice how the arm of the cheater looks like a snake about to strike. While the position of the rich lad's arms look like a rabbit's or a mouse, making him the prey.

Thank you for this video, I have a painting by Hermann Voss dated 1936 , it was Voss an art historian that brought attention to the "Cheat with the Ace of Diamonds". In Voss's painting he depicts a deck of cards, a pipe, cigar, and pack of cigarettes all vices. It seems that the work of de La Tour was the idea behind the painting.

I could just listen to you all day. Great work! :)

Excellent. Thank you, Sir.

What type of analysis is this. Is it visual, or iconographic?

this is just soooo wonderful!
